NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the methionyl aminopeptidase family and encodes a protein that binds 2 cobalt or manganese ions. This protein functions both by protecting the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 from inhibitory phosphorylation and by removing the amino-terminal methionine residue from nascent protein. Increased expression of this gene is associated with various forms of cancer and the anti-cancer drugs fumagillin and ovalicin inhibit the protein by irreversibly binding to its active site. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq]
Uniprot Description
METAP2: Removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The catalytic activity of human METAP2 toward Met-Val peptides is consistently two orders of magnitude higher than that of METAP1, suggesting that it is responsible for processing proteins containing N-terminal Met-Val and Met-Thr sequences in vivo. Interacts strongly with the eIF-2 gamma-subunit EIF2S3. Binds EIF2S1 at low magnesium concentrations. Belongs to the peptidase M24A family.

Product Notes
The METAP2 metap2 (Catalog #AAA626620) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The METAP2, NT (Methionine Aminopeptidase 2, MetAP 2, MAP 2, Peptidase M 2, Initiation Factor 2-associated 67kD Glycoprotein, p67eIF2) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's METAP2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA), Western Blot (WB). Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Dilution: ELISA: 1:1000 Western Blot: 1:100-1:500. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the METAP2 metap2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "METAP2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
